The second conference of the international network discusses various aspects of Hegel’s concept of ethical life (Sittlichkeit). Its aim is to elaborate on its relevance for contemporary discussions in political and social theory and analyze especially the nature of modern Sittlichkeit. We welcome papers on any aspect of the topic. The aim of the papers should be systematic rather than merely historical-philological. The conference aims at stimulating fruitful exchanges between established scholars, junior researchers, and PhD students.
The presented papers will be considered for publication in the peer-reviewed series ‘Critical Studies in German Idealism’ (BRILL: Leiden/Boston). Publication language: English.
Abstracts (no more than 500 words!) should be sent as attachment (PDF) to hegel_relevance2018@hotmail.com.
Abstracts should be prepared for double-blind review by removing any identification details. The author’s name, paper title, institutional position and affiliation, as well as contact information and a short CV, should be included in the body of the e-mail, with ‘Submission Hegel Network 2018’ in the subject line.
We assume that financial assistance will be available for travel and hotel costs. At this stage, however, we cannot indicate a specific amount.
Organization: Steering committee of the International Network Hegel’s Relevance / Internationales Netzwerk Hegels Relevanz: Jiří Chotaš (Prag), Paul Cobben (Tilburg), Christian Krijnen (Amsterdam), Tereza Matějčková (Prag), Klaus Vieweg (Jena), Jean-François Kervegan (Paris).
